About Our Common Ground
Our Common Ground is a CARF accredited, nonsectarian nonprofit providing substance use and mental health services to adults across San Mateo County and the greater San Francisco Bay Area.
Its Woodside Road location serves as a Recovery Residence, offering therapeutic supportive housing for adults navigating co-occurring substance use and mental health needs.
Since 1988, I like that OCG has helped clients sustain progress through a family like environment built on peer support and accountability.
Therapeutic Supportive Housing
The Woodside Road Recovery Residence provides safe, structured housing for adults participating in outpatient treatment.
As part of OCG's full continuum of care, this setting helps residents reinforce recovery skills while remaining connected to counseling and community support.
OCG's strengths based therapeutic community model centers on positive peer interaction and individualized rehab planning.
Residents benefit from a nurturing, accountable atmosphere that emphasizes trust, honesty and responsibility, addressing both recovery and the underlying patterns that support long term wellness.
Whole Person Support
Beyond housing, OCG offers trauma informed care that addresses boundaries and self esteem, assertiveness and relationships.
Clients can access substance use and mental health counseling, family involvement and conflict resolution, anger management and vocational preparation. This whole person approach helps adults rebuild stability across every area of life.
Next Steps
OCG's Recovery Residence is located at 631 Woodside Road in Redwood City, with additional outpatient and residential services offered elsewhere in the Bay Area.
I want to note that the organization holds a three year CARF accreditation, reflecting its long standing commitment to quality care since 1988.
OCG accepts private insurance when it is an in network provider and staff can help you verify coverage.
Amenities
Residential drug rehab provides the comforts of home with the therapeutic support needed to successfully recover. Benefits of an inpatient program include increased safety, a higher success rate, and the time and distance given to focus on recovery. Residential drug rehabs are often the preferred method of treatment, as they can be tailored to meet specific needs, offer focused therapeutic care, and provide the necessary tools to sustain recovery.
Addiction Treatment Programs
Typically, a young adult program in California can guide individuals from detox, through initial treatment, and extends to aftercare. Treatment gives young adults what they need to reset their lives and move to the next stage of life free from addiction.
An adult program in California uses various therapeutic methods to treat a person who is dependent on an addictive substance. Individuals aged 18 and older are eligible for treatment, which focuses on breaking the cycle of addiction and learning how to maintain sober living.
Alcohol rehab in California provides professional treatment to guide participants through each step of recovery. Programs offer a support system to walk you through challenges and celebrate victories with you, from detox to long-term sobriety.
Gender-specific addiction treatment programs may be more effective in treating men because they focus on unique needs of males. Men’s rehab in California is designed to help men process emotions and cope with stress in a judgment-free environment.
Women’s rehab in California provides a safe environment where women can work through addiction challenges surrounded by their gender peers. This often creates an environment that is more conducive to recovery.
For those who are struggling with opioid use disorder, help is available at opioid rehab in California. This complex addiction can be treated through a combination of evidence-based therapies and medication assisted treatment.
Drug rehab in California teaches participants constructive ways to stay clean and sober. Treatment revolves around helping individuals stop using the substance they are addicted to and learn healthy habits to avoid relapse.
Levels of Care
When you choose outpatient rehab in California, you will meet with a counselor and attend support group meetings. The focus will be on restructuring attitudes and thoughts to reduce cravings and develop skills to prevent relapse. The length of time in outpatient rehab varies by individual, based on their recovery needs.
When you have a co-occurring disorder, it is essential to treat both your addiction and the mental health disorder. California dual diagnosis treatment provides this type of multidisciplinary approach, for improved recovery outcomes.
Unlike outpatient drug rehab, clients receiving inpatient rehab in California reside at the facility for the duration of the program. The length of stay may range from two weeks to 18 months or more, depending on the client's needs and the program’s design.
